Could have been so much more...

This was a fairly decent listen, but left me feeling it could have been so much more, both from a literary and narration point of view. They story's concept was interesting but I thought the execution of the story was a bit hit and miss. Some parts of the book left me gagging for the next chapter in that character's story while others left me cringing, and fast-forwarding to get past it. Some of the narration I feel was miscast and over read in some parts but, in the main, was OK. Not Booker prize material, but wouldn't be the first book in the fire on The Day after Tomorrow.

I liked the concept of the story line before I started reading but this book really exceeded my expectations! It made me laugh, cry and had me on the edge of my seat at times. This is a great listen and I was completely hooked. The narration was brilliant and I enjoyed all of the different characters! I would highly recommend this book!
